Cvd's

[Sergio]

Ok i was running my mt and the pin fell out From the cvd the piece also broke a corner of where it was( don't know what that is call) where can I get the pins and the broken cup everything else is fine

 

[fei]

mb u can find RCDAD at here

I believe you need to replace the whole CVD.

If you convert it to drive cups and dogbones then you can replace just the cup and pins.

 

[Sergio]

They don't sell a kit to replace the lost pin and the cup I broke I took all the cvd's and all the pins were loose

 

[Guest]

That's why some choose to run the dogbones up front.

 

[Guest]

Those are good parts to keep spares of. They will always be a maintenance item.

 

[Sergio]

Just the front? Cause they all were loose. So it's either new set o go with dog bones right ?

 

[Guest]

You can find pins that will work. If you break the CVD cup you have to replace the whole thing.

Ok rcdad your help is appreciated

Also, Locktite the setscrews holding the new pins in with at least blue Locktite. The metal to metal screws, and setscrews have a habit of backing/falling out.

No prob man.

What dog bones do you use if converting from cvd's?

 

[Guest]

The rears with the rear cups.

 

[jeffp83]

The redcat bones or will the extended baja ones work?

 

[Guest]

The Redcat versions.

 

[Deluge]

Ditch the CVD's. I run MCD dogbones. They're beefy as hell, too.

How long are the extended Baja dogbones? The Redcat dogbones are 133mm.

 

[REVOlutionary Rampage]

If I remember right, there an inch longer than stock HPI's. So, if not the exact size of the Redcat's it's close.

 

[jeffp83]

Towerhobbies lists the darksoul meaty dog bones for the baja at 132.5mm in length... which means they may work on the redcat's with hpi rear dog bone cups.

 

[jeffp83]

And they are super beefy (7.5-8.5mm).

That's worth try!
